My Project

I teach a great group of students who are excited to learn! They are thoughtful and enjoy learning about each other. Many of my students celebrate Lunar New Year and so I am asking for the book Lunar New Year so we can learn more this tradition and our students can see themselves in our learning. I am also asking for playground balls. We will use the balls to play a variety of games. One game we will play is catch for wishes! Each student will toss the ball to a partner and as they do so will make a wish for the new year. I am excited to share the resources with my students!
